Wikipedia Overview
Coverage of the Hillsborough disaster by the British tabloid The Sun led to the newspaper's decline in Liverpool and the broader Merseyside region, with organised boycotts against it. The disaster occurred at an FA Cup semifinal football match between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest being held at Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield. There were a total of 97 fatalities and 766 injuries from the disaster due to gross negligence by the South Yorkshire Police and ambulance services.
